Thinking Patterns and the Likelihood of Criminal Activity Among Technical Intern Trainees by Race
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I was talking to someone from the trainee union the other day, and they told me about the mindset of today’s trainees.

A technical intern ran away, and here are my thoughts on that

Traveling to Nepal for Technical Intern Training Program Interviews (Part 3)
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. The other day, I conducted interviews and finalized the hires. As you can imagine, selecting 6 people out of 18 was quite a challenge! That said, I usually wrap up the interviews and hiring for interns at both companies (Enta and Izumi) in under two hours. My interview process is very simple—first…
